Was a interesting reaction from some in the fediverse stating they would block the BBC instance etc. In reality how welcome are entity's that are seen as corporate?
I also cannot understand why the BBC news is not live, possibly they are experimenting with the moderation and management elements. I guess the news feed would get hit harder than Radio 4.
Iirc, the big instance declaring immediately that it would defederate with them was one that’s very well known for being strict with moderation and had firm rules about anti-trans instances. Because the BBC has a history of being anti-trans, they defederated.
I hate defederation with a passion and I'm close to leaving lemmy.world because of its rash defederating. There is no reason to restrict users based on what the few leaders believe.
Go for it. Lemmy accounts are easy to make and itll share the load better.
